    so its the middle of may, all our favorite shows are ending for 4 months if not longer (looking at you person of interest), we have the summer shows, but they wont start to arrive for 3 to 4 weeks,

    ive being jumping in and out of The Shield when i get a chance over the last few months, also have season 2 and 3 of vikings to get through, and i must finish marco polo at some point also, so should fill the void,

    so whats on the the watchlist that people are gonna catch up on in the mean time,

    I've been gradually rewatching Star Trek: TNG, Star Trek: DS9 and Star Trek: Voyager on Netflix since last summer, so gonna try and get them re-watched completely before September.

    Also been re-watching Baywatch, because I don't actually like going to the Beach, but I do like the idea of Summertime...

    At the end of season 3 of person of interest so will finish that and start on S 04. Also may check out bloodlines.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,200 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Lots and lots really.. have taken on very little from network TV this year to be honest!

    In fact, haven't finished ANY of the new US network TV shows this year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,571 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    I'm thinking Game of Thrones (I'm a few seasons behind) and The Americans.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Community completely fell off my radar after what I thought was a good season opener, so Ill probably go back and watch season 6.

    Aside from that I dont know, did any decent comedies come out this season?

    Better Call Saul. Last 2 seasons of Love/Hate. May get seasons 5-8 watched of Monk as well.

    But will also use the time to watch movies and play games.

    Or may even make a journey outside. But that option's a last resort.

    On UK TV, Sharon Horgan and Rob Delaney's "Catastrophe" was brilliant!

    On US TV, "The Last Man On Earth" and "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" were well.. watchable at best.

    I'm on season 3 of Justified then I'm going to check out Gotham and the blacklist. Hannibal Will be back too

    Fresh Off The Boat and Blackish stood out for me. Both have been renewed for second seasons.

    Also, if you haven't seen The Goldbergs yet, it's well worth catching up on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 477 ✭✭stronglikebull


    I haven't watched any of Gotham, and none of the last season of Falling Skies, but have both stockpiled. I'm thinking Falling Skies has gone bad though, judging by a few comments I've read. Also have most of the current season of Blacklist to get through. Should keep me going till Hannibal and The Last Ship return.

    Only about half way through Daredevil too, which really is very good. Taking my time with that one.

    Must check out Blackish too.

    Got Netflix there recently so I have a lot of catching up to. My main targets are The A-Team, Grimm, HoC, Black Mirror and White collar. Also a rewatch of Third Rock From the Sun (never seen it from begining to end), Community and The Thick Of It


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,325 ✭✭✭✭Dozen Wicked Words


    Going to watch Sleepy Hollow, looks decent, another season of Castle still to watch too.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 35,731 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    I'm down to house of cards, rome and boardwalk empire before I refill with lily hammer, Gomorrah and five or six comedies.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,088 ✭✭✭✭_Kaiser_


    Restarted Mad Men from season 4 after giving it up previously. Looking forward to The Last Ship returning though.

    There's always The Wire to pick up again.. finally watched the first season fully a while ago but haven't watched beyond that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Looking forward to some great fun summer shows like The Last Ship, Power, Strike Back, Murder in the First, Hannibal & True Detective all nicely spaced so I won't overload.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 568 ✭✭✭Tomagotchye


    I'm thinking Falling Skies has gone bad though, judging by a few comments I've read.

    Was it ever good though? I enjoyed the first two seasons but I wouldn't say it was quality tv. I binged it which helped it but honestly I couldn't imagin having to wait a week or even an hour to watch an episode because I'd never remember to go back.

    now waiting for the movie they promised ;):D:D

    vikings next, i abandoned it halfway through season 2 to watch community, worth it:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,559 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Currently on season 3 of Haven, so should be caught up in plenty of time for the final episodes

    Just finished iZombie and a few weeks ago The Affair. Watching Veep and Catastrophe on Sky Box Sets.
    Will save True Detective to build up a few episodes and watch The Americans as it airs on RTE2.
    Planning on renewing Netflix to catch up on Orange is the New Black, Daredevil and Bloodline. Should keep me going until September!

    i actually forgot i have the first half of season 5 to watch of that


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 876 ✭✭✭Euphoria Intensifies


    Need to finish seasons 7 and 8 of Scrubs (although I saw most eps when it was airing first time round), watch season 7 of Parks and Rec and catch up on Last Week Tonight. Will probably give the recent seasons of It's Always Sunny a watch as well (I quit during the season with Fat Mac cause I thought it was seriously awful, but words seems to be that it's gotten good again).

    Probably will do a full Community and The Thick Of It rewatch. Planning on starting Orange Is The New Black or Friday Night Lights soon. Have been thinking about a full Mad Men rewatch, but think that will probably be later in the year. I also want to watch Nashville purely because a podcast I listen to keeps mentioning it :p I want to rewatch Veronica Mars as well.

    God only knows where I'll get the time for all this :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,534 ✭✭✭sioda


    Going to rewatch Sharpe again. Then sense 8 and daredevil. Tempted by last 2 seasons of 24 as well


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭NicoleW85


    There's a new series of Rookie Blue starting soon so I need to get myself up to date! Also need to find series 3 of Suits! Hannibal is slow starting this series but gripping nonetheless! Strong stomach recommended :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,917 ✭✭✭✭iguana


    I've just finished Orange is the New Black and now I'm looking forward to starting Deutschland 83, America's first foreign language tv series. I love cold war spy stuff and am a huge fan of The Americans and this series picks up exactly at the same moment The Americans S3 just ended at, Reagan's evil empire speech.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 18,661 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Black Oil


    Curious about Deutschland 83, thanks.

    I've to finish Oz. Other boxsets sitting around include Hunted.

    Keeping up with Murder in the First, The Whispers and Wayward Pines. Have to finish Sense8.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,909 ✭✭✭Gwynplaine


    Finishing off Mad Men at the moment.
    Am slowly getting through Little House on the Prairie, it's so innocent and refreshing. Enjoyable to watch, up to the 8th series now.

    I watched Little House on the Prairie a couple of years ago. It is a timeless show and there are quite a few great episode with really good acting. It gets a bit weaker in later years.


    I just watched the first two seasons of Peaky Blinders and thought it was great. I also watched Sense8 and really enjoyed it. I was surprised as I haven't liked anything from The Wachowski's in a long time.

    I plan on giving Black Sails a try next. Possibly followed by Penny dreadful.

    Nothings really calling to me, I'm giving Vikings a chance (I bailed after a few episodes of season 1) but there are some promising new shows starting this summer, Mr Robot being one. I can honestly say I've never seen a better series premier, that said I've no idea how they will sustain the show at that level or pace without it collapsing into the kind of silliness of 'Revenge'.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,793 ✭✭✭FunLover18


    I'm watching Pride & Prejudice on Netflix, really enjoying g it. I wish I could smoulder like Colin Firth.

    So, what was Last Man On Earth like? It had so much promise, but couldn't get past the second episode. Is it worth finishing the season?
